buying a bus tiket in Bangkok

[nithiya]

I want to buy a bus ticket from Bangkok to Phuket. I am living in the On Nut vicinity. Do I have to buy the ticket at the southern bus terminal, Sai Dai Mai, or can I buy it at an outlet downtown 2 days before?

Travel agents will be happy to supply you with a bus ticket. But personally I would got to the bus station and get a ticket with a well known company.

Did you consider getting the sleeper train to Surathani and from there a bus to Phuket? Might be more comfortable on such a long haul.
